@fkil08924c SET supports only switch-independent configuration by using either Dynamic or Hyper-V Port load-balancing algorithms. Destroy the port-channel and just leave as two independent links. Windows will handle the load balancing and failover with the Switch Embedded Team.
@fkil08924c Another thing you may want to consider is Uplink Failure Detection) UFD.
Uplink failure detection (UFD) provides detection of the loss of upstream connectivity and, if used with NIC teaming, automatic recovery from a failed link. A switch provides upstream connectivity for devices, such as servers. If a switch loses its upstream connectivity, downstream devices also lose their connectivity. However, the devices do not receive a direct indication that upstream connectivity is lost because connectivity to the switch is still operational. UFD allows a switch to associate downstream interfaces with upstream interfaces. When upstream connectivity fails, the switch disables the downstream links. Failures on the downstream links allow downstream devices to recognize the loss of upstream connectivity.
We have now tryed against two Dell S4048-ON switche. They are in a VLT domain. Still switch embedded teaming and same config at the host. The host have two Broadcom NetXtreme E-Series Advanced Dual-port 10Gb SFP+ Ethernet OCP 3.0 Adaptere. We try two things. Whit and whitout portchannel on the two switche. In both scenaria we get slow networksspeed (the upload is worst). But if we disable one of the netcard at the HOST then network seems to be fine. And that is in booth scenaria. So it looks like some load balancing is failing. But we can't solve what's wrong. We also tryed whit and whitout MTU size at both scenarias.
Here is switch config from both scenarias (same at both switche):
1:
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 description HOST-1 intNIC1 no ip address switchport no shutdown
interface Vlan 100 no ip address tagged TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 no shutdown
2:
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 description HOST-1 intNIC1 no ip address mtu 9216 no shutdown
interface Port-channel 1 description "HOST-1" no ip address switchport channel-member TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 no shutdown
interface Vlan 100 description management no ip address tagged Port-channel 1 no shutdown
@fkil08924c I know that my reply is very late and that you likely solved the problem by now, but according to the config that your provided, Interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 is still a member of port-channel 1. Removing the interface from the port-channel and then removing the port-channel is the correct thing to do.
This example code creates VLANs 22, 24, and 26. VLAN 22 is untagged traffic on interface gi 0/2, but tagged on ports gi 0/3-4. VLANs 24 and 26 are also tagged on those same 2 ports. Force10#config Force10(conf)#interface vlan 22 Force10(conf-if-vlan)#untagged gi 0/2 Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3-4 Force10(conf)#interface vlan 24 Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3-4 Force10(conf)#interface vlan 26 Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3 Force10(conf-if-vlan)#exit Please note that you did not configure VLT port-channels accordingly in VLT domain infrastructure and LACP port-channel recommended in VLT domain also. Learning more about it through the guides above could help you.

Did you end up doing this?

Hello, this is for those who couldn't get answers.
please refer to the guides below to know more about VLT domain and VLT port-channels.

This example code creates VLANs 22, 24, and 26. VLAN 22 is untagged traffic on interface gi 0/2, but tagged on ports gi 0/3-4. VLANs 24 and 26 are also tagged on those same 2 ports.
Force10#config
Force10(conf)#interface vlan 22
Force10(conf-if-vlan)#untagged gi 0/2
Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3-4
Force10(conf)#interface vlan 24
Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3-4
Force10(conf)#interface vlan 26
Force10(conf-if-vlan)#tagged gi 0/3
Force10(conf-if-vlan)#exit
